Labour Party's Julius Abur Calls Nenadi Usman an Impostor

Julius Abur, a chieftain of the Labour Party, led a faction that openly criticized Nenadi Usman, labeling her an impostor during an interview with Trust TV on Wednesday. Abur emphasized that the Labour Party will not accept political criminality, referencing ongoing disputes over party leadership.

The comments arose in the context of a court ruling that addressed the legitimacy of Usman's claim to the party's national secretariat. Abur stated that the judgment from the Federal High Court in Abuja, which recognized Usman as the chairman, was incorrect.

He asserted that the Labour Party belongs to his faction and that they will not accept any judgment that undermines their position. The ongoing conflict highlights the tensions within the party, particularly regarding leadership and authority.
